• Frenetically packing an overnight bag for us all.
• Giving my Mum a big hug when she arrived to pick us up.
• Purchasing a selection of possible wedding cover-ups from Monsoon (2 shrugs and a pashmina). They’re all going back, none of them were right. So the search for something to stop me freezing my tits off continues.

• Eating too much cheese. I take that back actually, there’s no such thing as too much cheese.
• Studying all afternoon.
• Missing out on a lengthy walk to the beach in the sunshine.
